A plastic part is molded of a plastic with an inner body of crystalline plastic and an outer surface layer of an amorphous plastic. The amorphous surface layer withstands friction loading at least during an initial break-in period. In one embodiment, the amorphous surface is formed by using a higher plastic melt temperature and/or a lower mold temperature than normal. In another embodiment, an intermediate part is molded as a crystalline intermediate part, and a surface layer is heated and quenched to form the amorphous surface layer on the final part. A bearing cage is molded by injecting the plastic melt at a single point intermediate the ends of a single bar of the bearing cage to permit formation of the desired amorphous layer on rails connected to the ends of the bars.

Hi gang! This song is an oldie! I think I wrote it back in 1987, or so. It wasn't later than 1989, I'm sure. Anyway, my pal KeithSeifert did the music and the vocals (along with backing vocals from his brother Kevin) back at that time. I star in the vid, but I am lip-synching to Keith's singing. Th...
